Excited to premiere a track from this striking collaborative EP by NY-based Spirit Guide and NC-based Every. "Motivation" traverses a similarly rendered hyperreal terrain to like-minded artists like Fatima al Qadiri and Nguzunguzu: glistening, technologically-informed beat music that filters skittering hi-hats and a futuristic hip-hop sensibility through its crunched digital arsenal. Interesting to read about the truly collaborative approach the artists took for an earlier track up on The Creators Project - trading Iranian popstar samples and flute plug-ins back and forth as "digital sketches" that became the final product.
